Congratulations to Sam Bahour on getting this article published in the New York Times! It is a road map of how Israel can make peace with Palestine based on interlinked economies and economic cooperation, much as Israel was able to make treaties with several other Middle Eastern countries. These types of arrangements might be able to preserve the Palestinian governmental structures while helping the people in them help their people. So, they seem more likely to go through. Bright, accomplished, and pragmatic, Mr. Bahour is someone I admire.
